Derivation as chartered: one row per insurer or broker per trade: published from-price per month and per year, the cover limit that price buys, and what the trade classification is (cleaner, window cleaner, carpet cleaner, drain cleaner, janitorial); the derived figures are the premium spread across the same £1m/£2m limit, the specialism premium a window or drain cleaner pays over a general cleaner, and the share of the market that publishes a price at all",
